This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and made part of our Terms of Use. When you submit Personal Information to us, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY AND OUR TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING ANY OF THE SERVICES YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS PRIVACY POLICY AND OUR TERMS OF USE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY PART OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY OR OUR TERMS OF USE, PLEASE DO NOT USE ANY OF THE SERVICES.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

The phrase “Personal Information” refers to information by which you or the device you are using to connect to the Internet may be identified. We may obtain Personal Information about you from various sources, including this website (www.naihiffman.com), mobile applications, or when you email us or communicate with us through social media (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy also applies to Personal Information you provide to us other than through the Services, including at events or promotions, or from our parent, affiliate or subsidiary companies, business partners and other third parties.
The types of Personal Information we may collect include:

  • Your contact information (such as name, email address, phone number or social media identifying information (e.g. your Twitter handle))
  • Information you provide by interacting with us through social media, including photographs with geo-location data
  • Information regarding your behaviors or preferences, such as a record of your activities on our website or social media
  • Other details that you may submit to us or that may be included in information provided to us by third parties

When you use the Services, we may collect certain information by automated means, such as cookies and web beacons. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor‘s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, is used to transmit information back to a web server.

2. HOW WE USE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

As a general matter, we use the Personal Information we collect to communicate with you regarding our products and services, provide you with information and updates about our business, websites, products and services, and customize the content and layout of our website.

We also may use certain of the information we obtain about you in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.

3. INFORMATION WE SHARE

We do not sell or share your Personal Information with third parties for direct marketing purposes or any other purpose, except as set forth below:
Affiliated Companies. We may share the Personal Information we collect with our parent, affiliate and subsidiary companies.
Third-Party Service Providers. We may also share Personal Information with our vendors and service providers who perform services on our behalf and with third party service providers that assist us with our own marketing efforts. Your Personal Information may not be used by these third-party service providers for any other purpose other than to perform the services provided to us.
Legal Process. We also may disclose Personal Information (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process (such as a court order), or if we reasonably believe the law requires such disclosure, (ii) in response to a request by law enforcement authorities, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity.
Sale or Transfer of Business. We also reserve the right to transfer Personal Information in the event we sell, merge or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. Following such a sale, merger or transfer, you may contact the entity to which we transferred your Personal Information with any inquiries concerning the processing of that information.

4. YOUR CHOICES

We offer you certain choices about what information we collect from you, how we use and disclose the information, and how we communicate with you.
You may withdraw any consent you previously provided to us or object at any time on legitimate grounds to the processing of your Personal Information. We will apply your preferences going forward, although certain requests or changes in preferences may require a short amount of time to process during which time your Personal Information may continue to be used in the manner prior to your request or change. In some circumstances, withdrawing your consent to NAI Hiffman’s use or disclosure of your Personal Information will mean that you cannot take advantage of certain Services.
You may choose not to receive marketing email communications from us by following the instructions for unsubscribing contained in such emails.
Most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of all of our Services. In addition, disabling cookies may cancel opt-outs that rely on cookies, such as web analytics or targeted advertising opt-outs.

5. HOW WE PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

Any transmission of Personal Information by you is at your own risk. We take reasonable precautions intended to help protect the Personal Information that we collect and store; however, no system or online transmission of data is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted to or through the Services. Please use security measures to protect your Personal Information.

6. SPECIAL NOTICE TO INTERNATIONAL VISITORS

The Services are controlled and operated by us from the United States and are not intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country or territory other than the United States. Your Personal Information may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers. By using the website, you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have different data protection rules than those of your country.

7. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

The Services are not directed to or intended for use by minors. Consistent with the requirements of the US Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, if we learn that we have received information directly from a child under age 13 without his or her parent or legal guardian’s verified consent, we will use that information only to respond directly to that child (or his or her parent or legal guardian) to inform the child that he or she cannot use the Services. Subsequently, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to delete such information.

8. CORRECTIONS

If you believe the Personal Information we maintain about you is inaccurate, you may request that we correct or amend that information by contacting us as indicated in the “How to Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy.
